The Privacy Act of 1974, along with other federal rules, restricts the government from using web cookies or other means to track and collect information when you use their websites. It also prevents their ability to share that information with third parties.

For CARS to work, the government needs to collect and share the information you provide through the software. The only way to get around these rules is to consider your computer - WHILE USING THE CARS SYSTEM - merely an extension of the government's computer infrastructure. Otherwise, they simply couldn't make it all work.

1) Beck doesn't show an actual system revealing this language, so it is unverifiable.

2) This is referring to the computer system that the auto dealers use to submit reimbursement claims, not individuals. So, unless you own a dealership, you have no threat of harm (if any really exists)

3) The language refers to the system, and its communications, being available for intercept, etc. This makes total sense, because it is government software. The government has a strong desire to monitor use of the CARS system to prevent fraud, etc. (This is no different than a bait shop using government software to issue a fishing license - that software is essentially an extension of the government).

all the right wing conservatives need to get over their loss in the Presidential election. it seems they are lashing out in every which way possible because they are SORE losers. suck it up buttercup. i did for 8 years! Bush never won the first election! deal with it, and quit being a bunch of whiny babies. y'all sound like the southerners over the civil war! i took the loss in stride. i was giving Bush a chance until he went into iraq. that's when i turned on ole #43. don't think Palin is your savior either. she's dumber than W. I didn't think that was possible.

No Pinning. Thanks!

TIMELINE OF ALA'S HIJACKING OF THE WEST BEND LIBRARY

YOUR LIBRARY: NO LONGER A SAFE PLACE

The West Bend Community Memorial Library and members of the SHARE Library System (to include Germantown, Slinger, Hartford and Kewaskum) no longer can be considered SAFE FOR CHILDREN.

Your library board believes:

1. All materials should be available for all ages (anything goes). Really!2. National control cannot (and should not) be resisted; therefore, the disturbing value system of the ALA, OIF,WLA trumps local control of the library by the citizens and taxpayers it serves.3. Young adults are children ages 11 through 17. (Be sure to address your 11 year old in a manner appropos.)4. Assisting parents in identifying sexually explicit materials within your library is not important to them.5. You must stay with your children and read each book he/she checks out to assure they are not entering into the YA Zone, that is, the "Yes to All Zone."6. ..that if other people's young children (even younger than 11....) are openly reading books of a sexually explicit, graphic nature, say nothing...and by all means, don't stop them from checking them out. You, too, can have an 8-year-old snag "The Joy of Sex" off the shelf right here in your very own library!7. ..that porn filters are not required, therefore, none are needed. True loyalty to the many children they serve. After all, we would not want to restrict freedom of speech to those young'uns!8. ...that organizations such as SafeLibraries,PFOX, PABBIS, and Family Friendly Libraries, that work to protect children from being sexually victimized are not welcome in our community.

9. That the excerpts listed below (WARNING: NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN) are perfectly acceptable for the eyes of children.

This is a propagana battle to ensure children retain access to inappropriate mateial despite the law, common sense and community standards.

PARENTS, TAXPAYERS, CITIZENS OF THE SHARED LIBRARY SYSTEM OF THE WEST BEND COMMUNITY MEMORIAL LIBRARY.......

YOU NO LONGER ARE A TAXPAYING SUPPORTER AND/OR PATRON OF A FAMILY-SAFE LIBRARY.
